Laquerd panels

[standfirmrasta]

Hi
Had a survey on a Beneteau today and in the heads and forward cabin which appear to have been closed all the time ,the wood paneling has little bubbles of moisture under the surface on about 60% of the woodwork.
a)is it laquered?
or
b)as someone down the pub has just said the wood may have some sort of film bonded to it.

I dont suppose there is a simple answer to this,never is !!

Anyone any ideas please.

I dont know Bene particulary but invariably it is several coats of lacquer, not a sheet film bonded. I've seen them do the lacquering it at several boat factories

Any ideas how to sort these bubbles as I would like to buy the boat and want to negotiate a deal compensating for the nessesary repairs?

No idea, but there are firms who do this. Sand down and re-do, I guess. Wont be cheap!
